Dictionary Corner

I don't know why but I always like to go to the dictionary first when starting a new thought process. Here are the thoughts of the great Wiki on the meaning of Table. It gives me something to thing about.

Table may refer to:
Table (furniture)
Deliberative procedures: Table (parliamentary), deferral of consideration or to table a motion
Tables (board game), a class of board games
The Table, a volcanic tuya in British Columbia, Canada
A type of diamond cut

Mathematics and data arrangement
Table (information), a means of displaying information in a matrix, e.g., Mathematical table
Table (database), a set of data elements
An Array, a group of elements accessed by indexing
